Cost Reduction and Local Responsiveness

When a business is assessing its pressures for cost reduction and local responsiveness, it must consider several factors:

Local responsiveness

If customer requirements differ significantly in different countries, local responsiveness pressure is high.

Cost reduction

If the business competes based on its efficiency and therefore requires, for example, economies of scale, to operate competitively, there is pressure for cost reduction.
